There is something over six thouS-
and dollars subscribed at present to re
build st. Philips church at this place.
\ large amount of that sum has been
subscribed by protestants. The people
of Avoca subscribed nearly two hun
dred dollars. Muscoda, Cobb, and
other places all subscribed literally.
Rev. Father Dempsey returns his heart
felt thanks to the people in general
for the great effort they are making to
rebuild the church, and especially to
the people of Avoca and our Protestant
friends who contributed so freely.
